Member profile - Hodgey's new bus MY00 Outback

Postby Hodgey » Wed Jan 09, 2013 8:52 am

After my 1993 RS Liberty Wagon was stolen mid December 2012 then recovered but badly burnt, I looked into getting something newer. I seem to have an obsession with white cars, and buying cars from NSW. Picked up this one from Marty on the 28th December.

Wow, this is one neat specimen! :D
Below car has been gone for quite some time now... blew bottom end bearing and dealership screwed me! Now driving 2008 WRX with ~65k kms on the clock. Only has cat back exhaust and tune by KiDo at the moment! More to come... but slowly!

Purchased recently (12/11/2013), already with: Stage 2 Pedders lowered springs, rear Whiteline sway bar, Advan Racing TCII 18x8 wheels, k&N pod filter, custom 3" exhaust system from turbo back with Magnaflow mufflers. ECUTEK tune of some sort (hopefully soon to be fixed)..... now FIXED!! Now KiDo Tuned!
Added: HID kit, EZ lip equivalents to the front and sides, and various LED treatments, oem boot spoiler, [LGT WRC] plates, GFB Respons BOV for extra Pssscchhh! --> Gone... I couldn't afford it's heart transplant... but keep a look out, as it will come back on sale soon!

I do love a good bag!

Images are dependent on screen size... annoying yes! Better if they auto resized to fit.
